There’s nothing lovely about injustice. Nothing elegant about children being harmed, demoralized, wronged. If only everyone felt this way.

We know you hold “childhood” to be as sacred as we do. You believe it should be protected. When you learn about the tragedies of what happens to these children, you want to act. We all want to act—and we can.

Through World Vision’s newest program Childhood Lost, youth groups, teenagers, and college students can help stop child slavery in Bangladesh before it ever has the chance to start! We have a goal to raise $300,000, which will help 800 kids by providing them with a Child-Friendly Space.

This Childhood Lost video features Propaganda, the Los Angeles hip-hop and spoken word sensation. Recognized internationally for his bold, poetic, soulful work, ‘Prop’ has a way of cutting right to the heart of humanity.

With his subject matter ranging from God to race to culture to politics, we were excited to partner with him on this particular piece, in hopes of sharing the message that: “Childhood is worth saving, because once it’s gone, it’s gone.”
